Daim
/Sounds like "DYEM" (as in "dye")/
Chicano Spanglish for a dime, the ten-cent coin. The loose change that piles up in the truck ashtray - "ni un daim" means you have absolutely no cash on you.
“I don't have a single daim on me, I'll pay you tomorrow when I get paid.”
“I spent a whole year collecting daims in a jar.”
